Bob & Mag,
There are all sorts of rumors. Anything from 1 to 4 fluke around 19". Length of season is all over the Universe. DEC usually waits till the last minute to let the word out. I don't even think about it anymore. DEC is going to do what they want. I refuse to worry about what they will do.
I posted to their site that I want the longest season possible. I saw what happened at Captree Boat Basin last year. The season ended Sept 12 and from then on most of the pb's sat idle at the dock. The whole situation from the feds down smells worse then an over loaded pig sty. Then throw in those national environmentalists with all the rich folks millions, UGH, gotta change the subject.
The good news for me is that as I get older and older I enjoy running others boats as much as fishing. I just enjoy being on the water.
I wish there was a way to have identical regs for LI Sound regardless of what state you came from. The same for the NY BIght for the NY'ers and NJ'ers. Seems to me it would make life much easier.
Can't wait to see what happens if CT passes a salt water license. Will Ny'ers have to get a CT license to fish there. I guess it is all about money!
Take care.
Capt Neil
